Revised (and matured)
Here it goes:
GD
When I was a young boy,
EmGC
My father, took me into the city
GEmAm (optional D lead in)
To see a marching band
GDEmGC
He said, "Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken, the
GEmAm
beaten and the damned?"
GDEmGC
He said, "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the non-believers, the
GEmAm
plans that they have made?
GDEmGC
Because one day, I'll leave you, a phantom, to lead you in the summer, to
GEmAm
join the black parade."
(THIS SECTION HAS THE EXACT SAME CHORD PROGRESSION AS THE FIRST TIME THESE LYRICS ARE SANG)
When I was,
A young boy
My father, took me into the city
To see a marching band
He said, "Son when you grow up, will you be the saviour of the broken, the beaten and the damned?"
(THEN STRUM SOME D....AND THEN STRUM G AND LET IT RING TO LEAD INTO THE NEXT PART)
(NOW, LETS CHANGE THE PROGRESSION A BIT....FINALLY)
GDEmGCGDGDEmG
Sometimes I get the feeling, she's watching over me
CGD
And other times I feel like I should go
GD
And through it all, the rise and fall
EmG
The bodies in the street
CGD
And when you're gone we want you all to know
GDEm
We'll carry on, We'll carry on
GC
And though you're dead and gone believe me
DG
Your memory will carry on
DEm
We'll carry on
GC
Until my heartache can contain it
D
The anthem won't explain it
GDEmG
A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
CGD
Your misery and hate will kill us all
GD
So paint it black and take it back
EmG
Lets shout it loud and clear
CGD
Defiant to the end we hear the call
G
To carry on
DEm
We'll carry on,
GC
And though your dead and gone believe me
DG
Your memory will carry on
DEm
We'll carry on
GC
And though you're broken and defeated
D
Your weary widow marches
B7Em
On and on we carry through the fears
Em
Oh oh oh
B7Em
The disappointed faces of your peers
Em
Oh oh oh
CDG
Take a look at me 'cause I could not care at all
D
Do or die
Em
You???ll never make me
GC
Because the world will never take my heart
GAm
Go and try; you???ll never break me
DG
We want it all, we want to play this part
DEm
I won???t explain, or say I???m sorry
GC
I???m unashamed, I???m gonna show my scar
GAm
Give a cheer, for all the broken
DA
Listen here, because it???s who we are
(KEY CHANGE)
EF#m
I'm just a man; I'm not a hero
AD
Just a boy, whose meant to sing this song
A
I'm just a man; I'm not a hero
E
I Don't Care
AEF#m
We'll carry on we'll carry on
AD
And though you're dead and gone believe me
EA
Your memory will carry on
EF#m
We'll carry on
AD
And though you're broken and defeated
EA
Your weary widow marches on
E
Do or die
F#m
You???ll never make me
AD
Because the world will never take my heart
ABm
Go and try; you???ll never break me
EA
We want it all, we want to play this part
E
Do or die
F#m
You???ll never make me
AD
Because the world will never take my heart
ABm
Go and try; you???ll never break me
EA
We want it all, we want to play this part (we'll carry on)
THE SINGER JUST SAYS "WE'LL CARRY ON" OVER AND OVER AT THE END, SO IF YOU WANT TO
SEE HOW THAT WORKS, HERE IT IS:
ALTERNATE PART TO THE ENDING
AD
And though you're broken and defeated
EAEF#mADABm
Your weary widow marches on (do or die.....)
EAEF#mADABmEA
